SIGNATURE: The most obvious design that sets these malas apart from others is that we incorporate a "stretcher" into every mala, which we call a slip knot. It is placed either at the top of the mala (opposite the guru bead) or as the guru bead itself; and allows the meditator freedom to adjust the spacing between the beads by sliding this knot.

Gaurang learned how to make malas in Bodhgaya, India (where the Buddha obtained enlightenment) and continues to get many of my supplies from the Northern region of India and Nepal.

All malas are hand made by Gaurang and Catherine and come with a GUARANTEE FOR LIFE! We repair the malas for FREE! You post back the beads and we post you back a newly strung mala. With love. We don't want to see a mala go unused, and they do break in time...so this is why we have this guarantee.
